VEGAN BANANA BERRY PANCAKES

I made these pancakes for breakfast this morning and they were a hit!  They got eaten so fast that I didn't get a chance to take a photo!  I guess I'll have to make them again tomorrow!  

Ingredients
2c whole grain wheat flour
1/2c oat flour or almond pulp flour
1/2c coconut flour
4T baking powder
dash of salt
3 1/2 c nut milk
2T coconut oil
1 small banana
2T lemon juice
2T flax meal (ground flax)
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon 
blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and/or cut up strawberries

Directions:  
1.  Put the first 5 ingredients in a medium size bowl.  You can make your own oat flour from blending up 1/2 c oats.  
2.  Put the remaining ingredients (except the berries) into your blender.  Blend on medium high until it is well blended.  Pour ingredients into a large bowl.
3.  Fold the dry ingredients gently into the wet ingredients.  If the batter seems too thick add 1/4-1/2 water and gently mix in.  
4.  Heat your pan (I like to use a cast iron pan for pancakes...they brown nicely and your get iron from them!) on just above minimum heat.  Put a dab of coconut oil in the pan.  
5.  Put heaping tablespoonfuls into the pan spreading a bit so that they are about 1 1/2 cm thick.  They will be about 9-10 cm in diameter.  Dot the top of each pancake with 5 or more berries pushing them into the batter.  Turn the pancake over when the edges start getting dry and the underside is golden brown.  Fry until brown.  
6.  Serve hot!

    1. Thank You! I'm glad you liked them! Around our home, we usually make pancakes, waffles or crepes on one of the weekend mornings! My family gets tired of green drinks and raw cereals!
